Tag Archives: Scarves

Last Sunday I ventured into the centre of Dublin, filled with a certain amount of trepidation, because that winter festival is approaching faster than a runaway train, and I was afeared I would meet a total cacophonous crush. But thankfully no: the city was gently awash with people, traffic whistled by, and Christmas lights twinkled but all in a pleasantly busy and festive-y way.

Yesterday when I wrote about the art of scarf tying I mentioned some sources to check out to help improve and perfect scarforial-knotting skills. Another great resource is a pack of Hermès Knotting Cards. I have one to give away; there are about twenty cards in the pack, each showing a different way of tying a scarf. To win, simply leave a comment on Just Add Attitude, the comment must mention the word scarf. The giveaway closes ten days from now on the 16th July. I will number all your comments pop them into a hat and pull the winning one out on the 17th July.

Christine Legarde (previously the French finance minister and now the new head of the IMF) was ranked forty-third on the Forbes 2010 list of ‘The World’s most Powerful Women’. Despite her high-powered international career, it was interesting to see that in a recent FT article (admittedly not specifically about her, or her new job) one of the first things that the journalist honed in on, when describing Christine Lagarde giving a speech, was that ‘she was wearing a scarf tied in a perfect geometric circle’.

About

Heading towards my latter years minus high heels but in stylish ballet flats. Just Add Attitude is my take on: life, style, food, interiors and so much more.

If I could I would spend my life on a constant loop between my three favourite cities: Paris, London and my native Dublin. Funds don't permit such a version of perpetual motion, so I am content to visit Paris and London as often as I can.
